2/4 + 1/25 as a fraction

Learn how to find what is 2/4 plus 1/25 in fraction form just in a few minutes. We have covered the easiest method to write 2/4 + 1/25 as a fraction and decimal.

Summary: 2/4 plus 1/25 = 27/50
Since both fractions have unequal denominators, 2/4 plus 1/25 is an unlike fractions addition. For adding unlike fractions, you have to first find the equivalent fractions for fraction 2/4 and fraction 1/25 in order to have the same denominators for both fractions. Therefore, you have to find the LCM of denominators 4 and 25. 100 is the LCM of 4 and 25. Multiplying the LCM 100 with the numerators and denominators of both fractions (2/4 x 100/100) + (1/25 x 100/100), and simplify further in order to have the common denominator. So the equivalent fraction for 2/4 is 50/100 and for 1/25 is 4/100. By simplifying this fraction addition 50/100 + 4/100, it becomes 54/100.

The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find the equivalent fraction between 2/4 and 1/25 by adding two fractions with different, unequal or unlike denominators. The sum in fraction form for 2/4 plus 1/25 can be obtained by using anyone of the two methods below.
1. LCM method
2. Cross multiplication method.

(2/4) + (1/25) using LCM Method:
What is 2/4 plus 1/25 as a fraction?

step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 2/4
Fraction B: 1/25

What to be found?
(2/4) + (1/25) = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/4 and 1/25.

step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 2/4 and 1/25 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 2/4 and 1/25 are not equal, it is said to be unlike fractions addition.

step 3For unlike fractions addition, find the LCM (least common multiple) of both denominators of fractions 2/4 and 1/25:
The LCM of 4 and 25 is 100.

step 4 Write the fractions 2/4 and 1/25 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
= 2/4 + 1/25
= [(2 x 100)/(4 x 100)] + [(1 x 100)/(25 x 100)]

step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
= 50/100 + 4/100

step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
= 1/100 x (50/1 + 4/1)
= 1/100 x (50 + 4)

step 7Simplify the above expression further:
= 1/100 x 54
= 54/100
= 27/50
2/4 + 1/25 = 27/50

Hence,
2/4 plus 1/25 as a fraction is 27/50.

Input:
Fraction A: 2/4
Fraction B: 1/25

What to be found?
(2/4)+(1/25) = ?
Find what's the sum of 2/4 and 1/25.

step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (2 x 25), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (1 x 4), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (4 x 25) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (2 x 25) + (1 x 4)/(4 x 25)

step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (50 + 4)/100
= 54/100
= 27/50
